Gemini Rising



Hi all today I have for you my favorite Holographic from Colors by LLarowe that I was sent. Gemini Rising is a beautiful GREEN holo (that I was sent for review). G.R. unfortunately stained my nails the first time I wore it. Lucky for me I was wearing it on my toes for vacation. So this time wearing it I knew to put on a green base color (2 coats of green and one two coats of Gemini Rising) that wouldn't stain my nails. Gemini Rising is a gorgeous holographic green that is very eye catching! I paired it today with tear drop lite green nail jewels (you can't really tell they are lite green though).

 

 

 In the shade Gemini Rising is still stunning!

 

I enjoyed wearing this color and find it a wonderful bright, cheerful green! Here is where you can find Gemini Rising if you are looking to add her to your polishes. Here is Gemini Rising's Holo family none of these will disappoint you if you are looking for a wonderful holographic!

This one's for Bea!

Hey everybody:) I hope y'all had a great weekend, I know I did! This post is for one of our biggest fans Bea, she asked me to do a water marble she had seen on pshiiit.com . And so I tried for a couple of days and to no fault of my own I couldn't recreate the water marble (I just didn't have the same colors). So I did try a couple of times and these are the results.

Attempt #1
I thought that because the photo showed holo that using all holo would give me the same effect... no such luck! In this W.M. I used a black base, Color Club Beyond, Eternal Beauty, Holo-Graphic and Cherubic. FYI if you are going to attempt this W.M. understand that holos are extremely hard to W.M. with and dry quickly. I think I kinda like the way this turned out anyway:)

Attempt #2
This W.M. is the closest I could get to the one from pshiiit. I didn't have the same colors but I think this turned out really pretty and the photos showed the chromes I used but not like IRL. I used Revlon Street Wear Raw, China Glaze Swanky Silk, Unpredictable and Color Club Cherubic with a black base coat.

Wow these really had me working hard to get the right combos and the right everything else... I guess the Earth aligned with whatever and these two came out pretty great! Leave me a comment and tell me what y'all think of these W.M.
And Bea I hope you love them as much as we love you!

Happy Polishing Everybody!
Love,
~Anne~

My Mom loves this!

Hi all today I have for you #4 from born pretty (with nude as a base). Now originally this would be red but as I was using nude as a base it came out this beautiful pink...that when I showed off the finish product my Mom said she LOVED IT! 

I then had to add a little Pat flair to this! Purple is my favorite color and I really wanted to incorporate it into this look. I chose to use KleanColor Metallic Purple using LLC-A for my stamp. 

I hope you liked today's look. It really is a favorite manicure of mine. 

I hope you have a wonderful day. 

Gamer Girl

Hi all today I have for you Born Pretty's #7 holographic. #7 is a sea foam green that is really pretty but not great for one to two coats without visible nail lines...I did use nude as a base color for that very reason. 

Here is how I stamped it. I used KleanColor Mettalic Black and Mettalic Green.

I loved this! I'm a gamer chick...I play many games and as soon as I saw this plate I knew it was perfect for me. 

Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi everyone and happy thanksgiving. Today I'm showing you Born Pretty's orange holo (born pretty has these numbered) # 5 . I started with one coat of a nude and then added two coats of #5 . I know I have said this already but adding the nude under the color does change the color but I just want you to be aware.  Here is this lovely orange holographic by born pretty. 

I really like the stamp I added to this it made it feel very fall. I stamped this with KleanColor Metallic Orange and Metallic Green. The stamped I used was Bundle Monster BM- H11.

I wanted to thank you our readers for taking the time and reading on our blog. 

I hope everyone that is celebrating Thanksgiving and all of you that aren't have a wonderful day. 

Love Birds

Hi all today I have for you born pretty holo #10 (on top of a nude base). I used two coats of #10 which I love on top of the nude polish. 

Then I stamped this beauty using KleanColor Metallic Sapphire and plate BM H17 from bundle monster. 

Very blingy and pretty. I really love this color and the stamp together. I hope this chases the Monday blues away. Have a lovely day! 

Birthday

Hi all today I have for you a look I wore over the weekend for a birthday get together for my niece. This is a born pretty purple holographic with a nude base coat because I didn't want put on to many coats and it seemed a little thin. So I grabbed a nude did one coats then two coats of the purple. Such a beautiful purple!

Of course since it was for her birthday I did multi color ballons with KleanColors.....the KC's look holographic also! 

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. 

Thanks for checking out today's post! 

Holographic Quick Shot...Wild At Heart

Have a Great day!

Holo Holiday: Snow is in the air!

Hi Everyone!! ^_^ This week is going to be a week of Holographic Holiday manicures. Today's post polish was a lovely gift from a friend. I actually received a few Holo's from her all of them to die for. Ladies! I swoon over the holo's I was given because they are truly amazing. This is 3 coats of Red. 

The first two pictures where taken inside with a flash and the other two outside.

 I have a few fimo sticks from Bundle Monster and I picked out the Snow flake stick and cut up a few. I know they might look a bit large but they really aren't.

I really liked how this turned out.

What is your favorite color to wear during the holidays?

Ocean Rush

Good morning everyone! ^_^ Today's post I have for you Layla Ocean Rush! Such a beautiful color I just wish I could have captured her better for y'all. To start off let me share I started off with a base coat  then a coat of Ocean Rush >.> waited a bit...<.< second coat a bit of balding >.< oh that's ok I can fix that right up after I wait a bit I'll add another coat right? well I tried that Ladies I really did v_v complete fail! So I look around what do I have that would come close for an underwear base coat? *LIGHTBULB* KleanColor Metallic Aqua that I just got in a swap! Absolutely the perfect underwear for Ocean Rush! So I started over! One Coat of base, ONE coat of KleanColor metallic Aqua, and ONE coat of Ocean Rush (again no topcoat)! Let's have a look!

I have to say KleanColor Metallic Aqua saved the day! I loved how this looked on me and I can't wait to wear it again! 

What is your favorite polish in your collection?

Mercury Twilight

Hello All! Today I have for you Layla Mercury Twilight...When I saw these on the Ulta website I went crazy! I needed a silver LINEAR holo because I don't own one. The price was a little on the high side for me at $15.50 per bottle but with a gift card I recently got I knew I could get two! So the down side I found with these is that they bald really easy and if you put a top coat on them you can kiss your linear holo G-O-O-D-B-Y-E! And yes I tried it with 5 different top coat's I own and all of them dulled it...I haven't tried it with my CG holographic topcoat yet but I might (maybe on the last day just in case). So this is 3 coats with a coat of top coat in-between coat 2 and 3. 

Oh yea that baby SHINES! I love it!!!! I'm glad I didn't pick another color to go with instead of the silver because this was needed in my book. It truly is amazing!
So what do you think?

Ruby Diamond

Hey Everyone ^_^ today I have Sally Hansen Ruby Diamond this is 3 coats. I found Ruby Diamond last year at Ross. It was such a great find because they came in a pack of 5 for around $7-$8! Can't beat that! Ruby Diamond is a beautiful Fuchsia Pink that is linear holographic. Let's look at the pictures...

In the Shade^

Oh yea! I really wish we could get Linear Holo's that didn't cost an arm and a leg...I really love Holor's no matter if they are scattered or linear!

Do you have a favorite finish? Creme, Jelly, Shimmer, Glass Flecked, Neon, Frost, Pear, Foil, Metallic, Glitter, Matte, Satin, Suede, Holographic, Flakies, Duo-Chrome, Multi-Chrome, Iridescent or Sheer...Share it with us we want to know! 

Apple Butterflies!

Hello everyone ^_^. Today I have Zoya Apple (from the Sunshine Collection).... Apple is so beautiful and sparkly <3 (2 coats). Let's take a look.

I then decided to water-marble with black and clear because I wanted my base color to show through and I know that glitter doesn't water-marble well.

I have been looking searching pinterest for butterfly water marbles. So I decided it looked butterfly-ish enough that I thought it needed dots. I used a toothpick as I already had it out and got out my Layla Mercury Twilight...I love how this turned out!

See how shiny! I love this so much <3
Monday will kick off Holographic week here at Southern Sister Polish so come back and see what we have going on! <3
